Updating my original post of Jan 2009 to reflect updated information about the CM RAP.

Microsoft PFE has had a ConfigMgr Health Check available for about about a year and half and we are now in the final stages of converting that delivery into a RAP (Risk Assessment Program).  The offical name will be "CMRAP (Risk and Health Assessment Program for Configuration Manager)".  This delivery should be released around holiday 2010. If your organization needs a CMRAP performed please contact your MS TAM.

Also here is a link to the Facebook page for the Microsoft RAP program:  http://facebook.com/MicrosoftRAPs

Create a .vbs file called getcomputername.vbs or something like that.  Add these commands to the file:

set env = CreateObject("Microsoft.SMS.TSEnvironment")

Name = inputbox("Enter the name for the new computer" ,"Prompt for Computer Name:",env("_SMSTSMachineName"),400,0)

env("OSDComputerName") = Name

Create an SCCM package and point the package source to the source folder that you stored the .vbs file in.  You don’t need to create a program item, just the package.  Add it to the DPs.

Edit your OSD task sequence and add a task to “Run Command Line”.   For the name use something like “Get Computer Name”.  For the command line use “cscript.exe getcomputername.vbs”  (get rid of the quotes).  Select the Package option and choose the package you built in the previous step.

I added my Get Computer Name task sequence after the Partition Disk 0 task but I’m not sure it matters. 

Advertise the task sequence
